Abstract
In this manuscript, using the concept of a couple called generalized upper-class of type-III and
-contraction, multi-valued fixed-point results are established in metric spaces. Our results generalized many results in the current literature. Further our methods can be applicable to the study of consensus problems. For the authenticity of the presented work, example and existence theorem for Fredholm-type integral inclusion are also discussed.
1. Introduction
Fixed-point study for set-valued (SV) mapping first was put forward by Neuman [Citation1] in game theory. Kakutani [Citation2] initiated a fixed-point theory of SV mapping in finite-dimensional spaces. This concept was extended by Bohnenblust and Karlin [Citation3] to infinite-dimensional (Banach) spaces. Nadler [Citation4] generalized the BCP (Banach contraction principle) by presenting the idea of SV contraction known as NCP (Nadler contraction principle), which asserts that in a complete metric space every contraction mapping has a fixed point, where
is collection of non-empty bounded and closed subsets of Ξ. He established fixed-point results in metric space utilizing the iterative method and the notion of the Hausdorff metric.
In 2002, the well-known BCP was extended by Branciari [Citation5] to integral-type contraction. Liu et al. established fixed-point results [Citation6] by extended Branciari [Citation5] fixed-point results with the help of restricted type functions. On the other hand, Akram et al. [Citation7] introduced a novel class of contraction mappings known as A-contraction, which is a proper super-class of Kannan's [Citation8], Bianchini's [Citation9] and Reich's [Citation10] type contractions. Sahaa and Deyb [Citation11] established fixed-point theorems for integral A-type contraction mappings.
Samet et al. [Citation12] announced the idea of α-admissible mappings. Related fixed-point results for α-admissible mappings were considered by Hussain et al. [Citation13]. Salimi et al. [Citation4] improved the concept of -contractive mappings and α-admissible and studied new fixed-point results for such mappings and provided the main results of Samet et al. [Citation12] and Karapinar and Samet [Citation15] as the corollaries. The concept of α-admissible mapping to MV mapping was extended by Asl et al. [Citation16] and Hussain et al. [Citation17]. Radenovic et al. [Citation18] built-up direct proofs of certain common fixed-point results via weak contractive conditions under different condition of control functions. Chandok et al. [Citation19] studied fixed-point results for
-contractive and admissible mappings using the concept of a couple
called generalized upper-class of type II.
Now, we give some basics defined in a metric space for SV mappings. Define the mapping
for
by
where
and
Geraghty [Citation20] generalized BCP [Citation21] in the following way.

Motivated from the above results, using the idea of Chandok et al. [Citation19] we establish fixed results for SV mapping via -contraction,
-integral-type,
-integral-type contraction. It is indicating that in our approach the implication
⇒
holds for un-bounded sequences
. Therefore, our result generalized the results of Hussain et al. [Citation13] and Chandok et al. [Citation19] for SV mapping. Also generalized and extended the result of Liu et al. [Citation6] for SV mapping. As an application existence theorem for Fredholm-type integral inclusion is also established. For some results on the existence of the solutions of nonlinear integral equations and qualitative behaviours of solutions of nonlinear integro-differential equations, we referee the readers to the papers of Deep et al. [Citation24], Tunç [Citation25], Tunç and Tunç [Citation26–29] and the bibliography of these papers.

3. Application
SV fixed-point results are explored extensively and have interesting applications in integral and differential inclusion [Citation32–38]. In this section, we derive sufficient conditions for the solutions of Fredholm-type integral inclusion. For this let be the set of all continuous function defined on

-contraction, SV fixed results are established in metric spaces. Existence theorem for Fredholm-type integral inclusion are also established. Our result generalized the result of Hussain et al. [Citation13] and Chandok et al. [Citation19] for SV mapping. Also generalized and extended the result of Liu et al. [Citation6] for SV mapping.
